And that section of the French Canadian press which stilJ carries on an intensive an- tl-,Semitlc campaign iet loose a terrific barrage at the Oovernor. telling tiim that no advice was wanted from a .few . . .

Denny's bravery is a matter of record—he serv¬ ed as a dispatch rider in Germ-' an army, and won the Iron Cross . . . But the Hitler med al is something else again . . Nussbaum has lived in Amer-I ica for almost twenty years
